Fritz Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Armbinde, "Wache", unusual quality, leather on some sort of waxcloth or lacquered textile. Wache means "Guard", no idea who could have used this. Does not look typically Wehrmacht, but certainly period. Worn on some sort of duty by a person of some organisation. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylinechili Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 Fritz, yes I've never come across another of this type either. I was thinking due to it's material and large adjustable size, maybe it was meant to wear over a coat of some sort? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Worn over some sort of service clothing, uniform or whatever. Material may be simply an Ersatz quality, as materials were always scarce. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
